A DRY AND ARID LANDSCAPE, DRY ORBS ENCLOSE THE SOUL
DEAD WORDS FALL UPON DEAF EARS, HOW MUCH LONGER CAN SHE HOLD?
FAMILIAR DESPAIR SHE CLUTCHES AND CRADLES IT SO CLOSE
WHAT SHE NEEDS SHE DOES NOT KNOW; MEMORIES AS GHOSTS
LIVING IN HER WILDERNESS, NO-ONE COMES WITHIN ARMS REACH
IT'S A CHOICE SHE HASN'T CHOSEN; HER TRUST AND TRUE BELIEF,
HER HEART AND MIND TOGETHER, VIOLENTLY BREACHED.
FITS OF ANGER AND BEWILDERED RAGE NEVER CHANNELLED A RELEASE....
NOW SHE SITS ALONE IN HER MODEST HOMEAND TRIES TO FIND HER PEACE
EIGHTEEN YEARS DRY, NO MORE, AS THE TEARS ROLL DOWN HER CHEEKS.
